  • The fact that he coached the current Olympic javelin winner, India's first and only gold speaks volumes to just how good he is.
  • @deronsteinke
    I would love to see what current athletes could throw with the old style Javelin
  • Hohn was already physically exceptional, at 1.98 metres tall and a competition weight of 116 kg, he was a giant with an incredible throwing arm.
  • @dstarsnz
    I simply love the fact that he took the challenge to coach someone from a country that's not really recognized in track and field .... That is a real coaching test.... prof that he has the secret to success in this event.
  • @junipertree2601
    "The throw was unparalleled" - looked downright parabolic to me
  • @mesmoe-rizing
    Can you imagine what it was like being a soldier in ancient times, thinking you are fine because the enemies are horrible archers, but then one of them just throws a sharp stick far enough to shish kabob you.
  • @floridadad2817
    @2:04 could not have been a more perfect moment. Bruce Jenner holding a javelin and the narrator goes into, "The actual javelin instrument itself changed in overall form." Why yes...yes it did.
  • I remember seeing Uwe Hohn throw when I was a young boy when my Dad took me to watch an athletics meet at Sydney Athletic field. I still remember being totally amazed seeing the Jav seemingly disappear into orbit after it left his hand as we watched from behind. Incredible athlete.
  • "Let's see who can throw these javelins the farthest..." "They're throwing them too far, make it harder to throw far."
  • @dick_tree
    Imagine a better feeling than dedicating yourself to sport, reaching the absolute pinnacle, then passing on your skills and seeing your student take Olympic gold. What a life.
  • @tykve
    Fun fact, current wr holder Jan Zelezny, while training for Sydney games, made throw so long it landed behind landing area on training field. It was not measured, but Zelezny himself said, it was perfect throw and it was easily over 100m, no measure though, believe it or not
  • @Vamika1995
    Great teacher made a great student. We are proud to have Neeraj and we feel grateful that he has a coach like Uwe Hohn.
  • @hessunator
    Another reason why the design was changed can be seen at 3:46. Many of the throws with the old design were landing in a flat angle and then gliding forwards in the ground which put the officials and other athletes in danger. The balance point of newer javelin design meant that the javelins are now sticking to the ground on landing.
  • Look at the distances Hahn threw the NEW javelin. He broke the "old" world record prior to his, but not his personal best. What an incredible athlete.
  • @TheKgv1
    Great Channel, its like a blast " from the athletic past" on every visit...keep it up guys, great stuff
  • @Incepter.
    Everything in Uwe Hohn's throw was perfect, profoundly impacting the javelin sports itself by shattering the world record by throwing the javelin 104 meters, it is truly a world record that will never be broken.
  • I couldnt care less about javelin throwing, but I watched every minute of this video. Very interesting and well done! đź‘Ť
  • @jessehutchings
    That throw looks incredible. He launches it with such power he almost falls over and it takes off like a lightning bolt! Legendary
  • @joey.h14
    i’ve probably said this before on this channel, but dude, the fact that this channel is called “total running productions” but isn’t just about running, is amazing. i love that there’s room for other sports to join the conversation, but the highlight is in running. i love that it isn’t anti-anything but running

    Putting our time and effort in activities and investments that will yield a profitable return in the future is what we should be aiming for. Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man without investment and I'll tell you how long it takes to go bankrupt. Investing creates a safe haven for the future. With the right investment choice that has at least a 10% minimum risk and with the advice of an expert, profits and interest is guaranteed.
